Using a mod/jog wheel to produce a note

I have a mini turntable (DJ-Tech VTT-101) that is basically a jog wheel and I'm working with a VST (DyScratch) that emulates a DJ scratching sound over a clip. The problem is that this VST uses the middle C note and above to produce the forward scratch and notes below middle C will produce a rewind ...

Re: Any tips and tricks on getting a good chopped up sound?

Sorry to keep asking about this, but what everybody tells me to try is either not doing what I'm looking for or I'm just too ignorant to figure out the parameters. Are there any videos on how to do this with a MIDI instrument setup? When I try to search for a chop effect tutorial, the results are mo...

Re: Any tips and tricks on getting a good chopped up sound?

OK, I'll put it this way: I can't figure out how to use beat repeat with a MIDI instrument. I've spent what free time I've had the last couple days googling this. I found some article on how to use beat repeat with a MIDI controller for live performances, bit it's not meant for my purpose. This Able...

Re: Any tips and tricks on getting a good chopped up sound?

From the video tutorials I just watched, I don't think beat repeat is going to do what I want it to. I'm not using a beat loop. I'm using Live like a MIDI soft synth, so just a MIDI in-audio out setup. I'm trying to setup my MIDI keyboard to produce a chopped up effect when I press a key/note. For s...

Re: Any tips and tricks on getting a good chopped up sound?

I've been racking my brain trying to think of a really good example of this. I only know of a few songs that have this effect. This song kind of pulls off what I'm looking to do, but that was more of a production effect than a synth effect. This is something I tend to come across more in dubstep son...

Any tips and tricks on getting a good chopped up sound?

First off, I'm pretty new to Ableton (Live Lite 8 version) and mainly I use it just as a MIDI soft synth for my MPK mini. I know about the arpeggiator effect, but I can't seem to figure out the best way to get a short choppy sound with any instruments. Trying to put a bit of a mute in between the re...
